Patek Philippe’s new Golden Ellipse marks 50 years of this uniquely shaped watch. The stunning 5738R (£23,620) comes in rose gold and is, at 34.5mm x 39.5mm, larger than the original – though the case remains lean at 5.9mm, just deep enough to contain the house calibre 240 self-winding mechanical movement. Ultra-chic finishes include the ebony-black sunburst dial, black onyx cabochon winding crown and black alligator strap, which runs behind the case.
